Powerball ticket worth $1M sold in West Allis

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- If you're a Wisconsin Powerball player who was ready to quit your job if you won the $587.5 million jackpot, you might want to tear up that resignation letter.

The two winning tickets were sold in Arizona and Missouri, although Wisconsin did have some smaller winners of its own.

State lottery officials say a $1 million ticket was sold in the Milwaukee suburb of West Allis. Ten other tickets won $10,000, including one that was quadrupled because the player bought the Power Play multiplier feature.

Winners have six months to claim their prizes.

The numbers that Powerball players should have played for Wednesday's drawing were 5, 16, 22, 23 and 29, and a Powerball of 6.
